VOD is up, sorry for the delay

Also, don't preorder it and try your best to wait a few days after release. It's worth being sure that the pc port is good before buying.

TotalBiscuit is streaming a bit of it now https://www.twitch.tv/totalbiscuit

Pretty sure the spec_player command is outright broken.

We use spec_tools/statusspec for player switching binds. Statusspec's binds are broken at the moment pending an SDK update from Valve. As far as I know they crash the game when you attempt to use them. Spec_tools is also mostly broken but the binds do still work, here's a link to an unsupported, ghetto, binds-only version of spec_tools http://puu.sh/nTnLR/e2c209ce54.zip.

The binds I use for spec tools are:

bind "KP_END"        "spec_player_cc 3 1; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_DOWNARROW"  "spec_player_cc 3 1 1; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_PGDN"       "spec_player_cc 3 3; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_LEFTARROW"  "spec_player_cc 3 3 1; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_5"          "spec_player_cc 3 4; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_RIGHTARROW" "spec_player_cc 3 5; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_HOME"       "spec_player_cc 3 7; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_UPARROW"    "spec_player_cc 3 6; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_PGUP"       "spec_player_cc 3 9; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_SLASH"      "spec_player_cc 3 2; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "KP_MULTIPLY"   "spec_player_cc 3 8; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"

bind "1" "spec_player_cc 2 1; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "2" "spec_player_cc 2 1 1; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "3" "spec_player_cc 2 3; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "4" "spec_player_cc 2 3 1; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "5" "spec_player_cc 2 4; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "6" "spec_player_cc 2 5; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "7" "spec_player_cc 2 7; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "8" "spec_player_cc 2 6; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "9" "spec_player_cc 2 9; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "0" "spec_player_cc 2 2; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"
bind "-" "spec_player_cc 2 8; spec_autodirector 0; spec_mode 4"

The number row is red team, the number pad is blu team. 1-6 on either one of them is scout scout soldier soldier demoman medic. 7 8 9 is pyro heavy engineer then on the number row - = is sniper spy on the number pad / * sniper spy.

The binds also turn off autodirector and force the view into first person.

Edit: Fixed the link, posted a really old version before

VOD is up, this one is definitely worth the watch.

Sideshow wasn't involved, you should put Permzillas face on velma instead

A surrender option isn't quite the same as a win difference. All too often in ETF2L matches you end up with dead time with a score like 5-2 and not enough time for either the winning team to make it 7-2 or the losing team to make up 3 rounds for a golden cap. At this point everyone is wasting their time by continuing to play. This is where you'd use a forfeit option.

That's the problem, the game could be an order of magnitude longer. The only advantage pure winlimit has over the etf2l ruleset is that it avoids dead time which is the 1-2 minutes at the end of a relatively close game where there is no chance for the losing team to win. So far as I know ESEA is the only league using winlimit and they're highly resistant to changes like that. In the rest of the world where we're free to set our own win conditions, if a winlimit ruleset was better we'd probably have changed by now. It's been brought up many times in terms of unifying the ruleset across the leagues because ESEA is never going to change it but every time the decision has been that the disadvantages of winlimit actually outweigh the benefits of a unified ruleset.
We do use winlimit for koth but koth is inherently time bounded so it's appropriate there.

VOD is up

Bren did a great job. He said right now/at the moment a lot but that's not really a problem and it's one he can work on.

Incredible game though.

It's still Admirable and Kaidus but we have cx, war and dr phil for the analyst desk.
